Last night was my cousin’s 50th birthday party. A good time was had by all, mainly helped by lots of Guinness and the odd cheeky shot. 

Sunday morning in London? What is one to do? 

There is only one thing to do….we joined every other person in London and made our way to IKEA…

 It was very busy.

On the partaaay bus!  

To some, having a cup holder in your car is standard. You think nothing of it. It’s there; you use it. 

For me, it is not standard. It is a first. My new (used) rather small, girly car has a cup holder!

Gone are the days of balancing Costa coffee cups on the dash. Gone are the days of sitting them in the footwell and driving very slowly round corners and avoiding potholes. Gone are the days of swearing when they slop all over the floor. Gone are the days of the stained cars mats and their distinct stale coffee odour. 

I am happy.

Small things and all that…. 

How simple can it be to build a kiddies swing? As it turns out, not particularly simple.  

Who wouldn’t want a Terry’s Chocolate Orange Pot of Joy?
